In Fang Zhou and Butcher Zhang's view, given Chen Qi's will and beliefs, even if Chen Qi's aptitude is similar to Butcher Zhang's, even if he doesn't awaken, he may still grow into another pillar of the human race in the future.

Now, the only path truly suitable for Chen Qi is awakening.

If Chen Qi can awaken the memories of the parallel world's catastrophe era, he will be able to directly obtain the power of the parallel world and step into the extraordinary realm.

If not, Chen Qi would probably only be able to live an ordinary life.

Bai Weiwei knew this too, which is why she felt even more sorry for Chen Qi after witnessing his conviction and will firsthand.

As time passed, about five minutes later, Chen Qi finally reached his limit, and sheathed the Rose Sword, sealing the Seven Kill Blade Force contained within it.

Then, Chen Qi collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

In the past few days, as Chen Qi drew the Rose Sword time and time again, and as he endured the Seven Kill Blade Intent time and time again, the time he could hold out continued to increase.

This noticeable progress gave Chen Qi a great deal of motivation and also boosted his confidence.

Just then, Chen Qi heard footsteps approaching him.

Exhausted, Chen Qi didn't notice that the footsteps were different from usual; they were the footsteps of two people.

Just as Chen Qi was dozing off, an unfamiliar voice rang out, "Long time no see, Chen boy."

Upon hearing this unique address, Chen Qi's spirits lifted instantly, and the previously unfamiliar voice suddenly became familiar.

It was unclear where the power came from, but it made Chen Qi look in the direction of the sound.

Upon looking up, Chen Qi saw Bai Weiwei looking at him with admiration in her eyes and a smile on her lips.

Immediately, Chen Qi's face showed excitement and disbelief as he asked, "Aunt Bai, what are you doing here?"

Bai Weiwei smiled and said, "I came here specifically for you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qi looked bewildered and confused, not understanding why Bai Weiwei had come specifically for him.

Bai Weiwei didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Ming'er has already told me about your matter. I came here to confirm it in person."

"Now, I have confirmed it."

"Your perseverance under the rose sword is truly extraordinary, demonstrating a belief and will far beyond that of ordinary people."

As she spoke, Bai Weiwei took out a rolled-up, antique-style scroll from her bosom and handed it to Chen Qi.

Chen Qi subconsciously took the ancient scroll, his face showing increasing bewilderment and confusion.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Qi heard Bai Weiwei say, "This was made by the Martial Ancestor himself. He specifically asked me to pass it on to you."

"The Martial Ancestor said that with your belief and will, combined with the Seven Killings Sword, you can cultivate the Visualization Body Refinement Method. If you persevere, you may well achieve something."

Upon hearing Bai Weiwei's words, Chen Qi's pupils constricted sharply, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

Not to mention Chen Qi, even Bai Ming, who was standing to the side, showed a look of shock after hearing Bai Weiwei's words.

For those of them who grew up hearing the name of the Martial Ancestor, the name of the Martial Ancestor was simply too resounding, and the weight of the Martial Ancestor's words was beyond doubt.

Immediately, Chen Qi, his face filled with excitement and exhilaration, said to Bai Weiwei, "Aunt Bai, please tell Wu Zu for me that I will persevere and will not let Wu Zu down!"

As he spoke, the light of confidence in Chen Qi's eyes grew even brighter.

Bai Weiwei simply smiled and nodded, saying nothing more.

In her heart, Bai Weiwei whispered, "Having something to look forward to is better than living aimlessly. The trials of life and death aren't suitable for you right now..."

"When I get back, I need to tell Fang Zhou about this and make him aware of it so he can cooperate in keeping this charade going..."

Chapter 477 Gu Ping'an's Peril, Unknown Syllables Reappear!

During these days, Wang Ba did not forget his promise and worked hard to help Gu Ping'an find his parents.

However, Wang Ba had tried many methods within his power, but he still couldn't find Gu Ping'an's parents.

Every day when Gu Ping'an returned to Wang Ba's home, although he said he was fine, Wang Ba could clearly sense his disappointment.

Furthermore, Gu Ping'an's despondency gradually made Wang Ba experience a feeling called heartache.

As night deepened, after confirming that Gu Ping'an was fast asleep, Wang Ba quietly left home.

Wang Ba now spends his days helping Gu Ping'an find his parents and his nights dealing with the supernatural events that follow.

Wang Ba wanted to earn more money, and if all else failed, he would spend money to use the media to find Gu Ping'an's parents.

Wang Ba still refused to believe that he wouldn't be able to find Gu Ping'an's parents.

As for seeking help from the government, Wang Ba has tried it before.

Although Wang Ba distrusts humans, he has to admit that the official capabilities in finding missing persons are beyond his own.

Therefore, after several unsuccessful attempts, Wang Ba took Gu Ping'an to the authorities.

The result, needless to say, was failure.

There are two reasons for this.

First, Gu Ping'an was completely unable to reveal his identity in this world.

Secondly, there is no record of missing persons related to Gu Ping'an in the official database.

This means that either Gu Ping'an's parents simply don't care about him, or even if they discover he's missing, they don't want to waste their energy looking for him.

Or perhaps Gu Ping'an's parents had no idea that Gu Ping'an had disappeared.

Logically speaking, Gu Ping'an's parents should have discovered that he had disappeared after staying at Wang Ba's house for so many days.

But this is on the premise that Gu Ping'an's parents can still discover that Gu Ping'an is missing.

That's right, if Gu Ping'an's parents had already passed away, then all of this would make sense.

Wang Ba had suspected this possibility, but he did not tell Gu Ping'an.

Wang Ba had already guessed how Gu Ping'an would react after learning of this possibility, and it was something Wang Ba did not want to see.

Why Wang Ba wouldn't want this, Wang Ba didn't know either.

Wang Ba felt that Gu Ping'an's existence was very special to him.

The capital city at night is not as bustling as it was in the old days; instead, it is very deserted, with hardly any pedestrians out.

After all, the world is very dangerous now. In addition to the constant invasions from alien sea creatures, there are also unknown monsters and demons active in the cities where humans live.

Nighttime is their domain; if you wander around outside at night, you are very likely to encounter danger.

This is also common sense for people in this era.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, no ordinary person would choose to go out late at night.

Therefore, Wang Ba was driving his secondhand car, speeding unimpeded through the streets of the capital, heading towards his destination.

Just when Wang Ba thought he would continue smoothly without any obstacles, his gaze suddenly sharpened, and he slowly stepped on the brakes.

Finally, the car stopped right next to a human figure.

If Wang Ba hadn't recognized the figure, he probably would have thought it was some kind of demon or monster daring to stop his car.

After the car stopped, Wang Ba got out and looked at the person blocking the way, saying, "I wonder what the famous hero wants to do by stopping my car in the middle of the night?"

"Could it be because I was speeding a little that they stopped me on purpose?"

The man did not answer Wang Ba's question. Instead, he took out a document and read aloud, "Wang Ba, 32 years old, unmarried, both parents deceased."

"A former ordinary employee of Fuyuan Network Information Co., Ltd., but suddenly resigned from the company five days ago and registered on the Night Watchers website, accepting his first mission involving a supernatural event..."

As Wang Ba listened to this information, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he were deep in thought.

After reading Wang Ba's information, the man stared at Wang Ba and continued, "You once told your superior that your talent had awakened and you had become a fire element talent awakener."

"However, I have not found any record of you applying for the Talent Awakening Potion."

"Furthermore, your deceased parents were not gifted awakeners, which means that you could not have inherited their gifted awakening genes."

"So, I'm curious, why would someone who has been unremarkable for the past 32 years undergo such a dramatic change just five days ago?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba raised his furrowed brow slightly. Instead of answering the question, he asked in return, "Is this why you came all this way to find me?"

Upon hearing this, the man immediately replied, "What did you mean by what you said to Chen Qi five days ago at Fish Round Lake?"

This time, Wang Ba finally understood why Bai Weiwei, the famous White Bone Demoness, had come specifically to find him—it was for Chen Qi.

In fact, Wang Ba had long anticipated that someone might come looking for him.

However, Wang Ba did not expect that the person who came would be Bai Weiwei, who was on par with the hero who fought against the gods.

Although Chen Qi's identity is special, Bai Weiwei's identity is even more special. She is not only a renowned hero, but also the guardian of the White Bone Survival Base.

It can be said that, given Bai Weiwei's current status and position, even Chen Shou, the Grand Elder of Kyushu, would have to treat her with respect when they meet her.

However, Wang Ba's lack of emotion resulted in a very calm reaction from him. He was not shocked or incredulous at Bai Weiwei's appearance.

At the same time, Wang Ba delivered the speech he had prepared long ago.

"Actually, I awakened memories of a parallel world's catastrophe era. In those memories, I was once a member of the heroic army led by Chen Qi."

"That's why I got to know Chen Qi."

"As for what I said to Chen Qi, it was because I knew that Chen Qi had not yet awakened, and I wanted to help Chen Qi to pursue his true self and awaken his memories."

Bai Weiwei frowned slightly upon hearing this, but did not reply immediately.

Bai Weiwei's intuition told her that Wang Ba wasn't telling the whole truth and was even hiding something.

However, Wang Ba's words left Bai Weiwei unable to find any flaws, and she didn't know how to break the deadlock.

Seeing this, Wang Ba remained calm and was about to ask Bai Weiwei to make way.

Just then, Wang Ba's phone suddenly rang.

Upon seeing the caller ID, Wang Ba answered the phone without hesitation.

As soon as the call connected, Wang Ba heard Gu Ping'an's voice, filled with terror and helplessness, saying, "Uncle Wang Ba, help..."

Gu Ping'an disappeared abruptly before he could finish speaking.

At the same time, a strange phrase composed of syllables unknown to humans suddenly came from the phone: "gu-ping-an..."

Instantly, Wang Ba and Bai Weiwei both changed color!
